Courage — a one-owner, bluewater-ready 2023 Nautitech 46 Open
Ready to cross an ocean, or just island hop
Courage is a 2023 Nautitech 46 Open, built to the Explorer specification and built at the Nautitech factory in Rochefort and delivered new in La Rochelle, France in May 2023. Owned and sailed by a single owner since new, she has spent 2 seasons in the Med, crossed the Atlantic, and spent the past season cruising the Caribbean. Every engine hour, watermaker run and service, and maintenance action logged in detail from day one. She's currently hauled out at Hartman Cove, Grenada — a rare opportunity to buy a young, heavily-upgraded 46' cruising catamaran with a complete, documented history and no surprises. Courage has logged over 13,000 nautical miles, with the full voyage track available on NoForeignLand. You can also read the full owner's write-up on the Our Story page and can peek into the cruising lifestyle from their social media on the Photos & Videos page.
As a brand, Nautitech has a long history of building fast, comfortable, and seaworthy cruising catamarans. The 46 Open is a proven design, with a large cockpit and saloon, three ensuite cabins in the owner's layout. Nautitech targets owners that want to explore the world with a balance of performance, comfort, and ease of handling. Compared to the major brands built for charter (e.g. Lagoon, FP, Leopard and Bali) Nautitech is a more performance-oriented catamaran, with a lighter displacement and a more efficient hull shape that can sail upwind to 38° AWA and still keep sailing when the breeze drops. Compared to high performance catamaran brands (e.g. Outremer, Balance, HH) Nautitech's lack of daggerboards and hull shape still allow the boat to carry a healthy payload and provide all the creature comforts. To get the same living space/comfort on a performance catamaran you'd need to step up to a 50-52' model which drives cost up significantly making Nautitech an excellent value.
